Seven legs left

She won't have worldwide appeal, I know, but I do love it when a bug is waiting for me to take a photo.  She was a sizeable furball and in that stance that gives the impression she might leap on you.  She has been known to kill her other half if he hasn't brought a treat beforehand to stave off her hunger after mating.

I'll be looking out for her again as I didn't realise until discovering who she was that she has created this tent to hide her eggs or young in.  She's a nursery web spider, I believe. 

And I do rather wish I had legs to spare like she has right now.  I wonder if that one will grow back.
